"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week's WoW selection is...
Author: Huntley Fitzpatrick
Series: n/a
Publisher: Dial BFYR
Publication Date: April 15, 2014
From the author of My Life Next Door comes a swoony summertime romance full of expectation and regret, humor and hard questions.
Gwen Castle's Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her Nantucket-esque island this summer. He's a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she hails from a family of fishermen and housecleaners who keep the island's summer people happy. Gwen worries a life of cleaning houses will be her fate too, but just when it looks like she'll never escape her past—or the island—Gwen's dad gives her some shocking advice. Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to resolve what she thought was true—about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself—with what really is.
A magnetic, push-me-pull-me romance with depth, this is for fans of Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han, and Deb Caletti.
I really, really loved the adorable romance in My Life Next Door and I decided after that that I would pick up anything else Huntley Fitzpatrick read. But I'm even more excited now that there's a synopsis for What I Thought Was True! I kind of love wrong-side-of-the-tracks love stories and all the complications involved, and I have a feeling I'm going to love this one, as well.
AGAIN?! You and I are like THIS. *doing the hand/finger thingy* :) Great pick, my friend!

I'm dying for this one as well, Jen! I'm bummed that I was turned down for it on EW. But can't wait to get a chance to read it soon. My Life Next Door was one of my favorites last year.
ReplyDeleteI've seen this one across many blogs, so I decided to add it to my TBR list. Sounds great! I haven't read My Life Next Door, but I really want to.
